Leicester boss Shakespeare tells Brighton to wait for Lawrence decision

Leicester City boss Craig Shakespeare says he's yet to make a decision over the future of Tom Lawrence.

The 23-year-old has made just four first-team appearances for Leicester since joining from Manchester United three years ago.

Lawrence has already been subject of reports of an £8 million bid from fellow Premier League side Brighton as well as further interest from Championship club Derby, says the Leicester Mercury.

“Tom has still got another year with us," said Shakespeare, after the draw against MK Dons. “I am having a look at him.

“His performances in pre-season have been decent, and his fitness levels are improving. We keep working with him and see what happens."
